Well shit we haven’t raised taxes on the rich in like 4 years, it must be time to do it again!

I get what you’re saying, but at the end of the day OKC is packing the house and gigantic Seattle wasn’t. Explanations for why only go so far and don’t (IMO) outweigh the population difference (Seattle metro is 3.7 million, OKC is 1.4). At the time I was sick of Seattle fans bitching when they hadn’t been going to…
Can’t say the same when they hosted half a season of Katrina-displaced Hornets games, they packed the house for those games to. Those are just good fans. They deserve a team way, way more than Seattle.
The Sonics/Thunder were terrible when they moved to OKC. In Seattle (big market!) attendance sucked. In OKC (tiny market!) they sold out. Fuck you Seattle.
This article has a large number of both good and bad points. On your next article, please try to get rid of some of those bad ones. They’re distracting from your good overall premise.
I don’t understand the Harden hate in every article about Westbrook. Dude is having a historic season. Is Russ’ better? Sure. Is that a reason to shit on Harden’s otherwordly season? Fuck no.
this is pretty much how we got Trump
Tough to hate on Harden for MVP, he’s having almost as ridiculous of a year
counterpoint: Fuck this strategy. Basketball is supposed to be fun. Intentionally fouling people (especially when you’re winning!) isn’t fun. Go play basketball... if you lose, you lose.
Last year before each NBA finals game, during some of the press stuff Silver would take questions and talk about basketball for like 15 minutes. Just a wide range of topics, very little prodding from reporters, he just talked basketball for a while. The guy is thoughtful, articulate, and passionate about the sport he…
The difference really is amazing. And to be honest, I don’t think it was anywhere near that clear when Stern was in charge. Silver is hands down the best commissioner in sports.
Absolutely. I think before physical altercations, all parties should sign consent forms.
There’s a lot of truther-ing to be done here. Is dude even applying any force to the blocks? It looks like he’s doing a hand (head?) stand, and then his body weight is breaking them.
“Lebron doesn’t owe you, guy in the 400 section who scrapped a couple hundred bucks together to see Cavs @ Clippers”
They kind of do, since we’re paying them to entertain us. If I went to see Deadpool and they were like “the next 30 minutes will be Ryan-Reynolds-free so he can rest up for the final fight scene; getting shot in the asshole really took something out of him” that wouldn’t be ok
“it’s almost as if you fruitloops can’t grasp context”
It’s almost as if you’ve divined who I am based on one (poorly read) comment!
Easy on the traitor talk. 80 years earlier, a bunch of “traitors” declared independence from England.
Here’s my favorite sequence: player and/or coach, who have made dozens of errors throughout the game, notice the ref making one and go lose their fucking minds. “hi I’ve missed 7 shots, 2 free throws, have three turnovers, am getting manhandled on the boards and have blown a few defensive assignments... OMG THAT…
